Often Christ's cross presses to the earth -
Christ.
When Jesus walked a long way he got tired, Joh. 4, 6. If anyone wants to follow me, let him take up his cross and follow me. Matth. 16, 24.
He carried his cross himself and went to the place called Calvary. Joh. 19, 17.
In the second edition of the Passionale, instead of this picture, there is the Carrying of Christ to the Cross, probably because the wooden stick of our picture was damaged.
